Although this query may already have been answered several times in
recent postings, as a new arrival to Debian, I venture to check that I
have understood the docs correctly before plunging into an upgrade
via "apt-cdrom".

I have used this routine successfully to add the "Debian 3.0R2" upgrade disk to my successfully-installed "Debian 3.0R1"; but I blench at an upgrade that involves tampering with the installed kernel.

Kernel-upgrades are outside my present experience.

You want to go from Woody to Sarge and you have the 14 Sarge CD's?
Why the kernel-upgrade? The packages will be dist-upgraded. Not necessarily the kernel.
Put the 14 or some such CD's in the sources.list with apt-cdrom
Make sure you backed up what you are doing this to.
apt-get dist-upgrade
Should do it.
